So for that one other person, I started playing Elemental Wings but have no idea what I'm doing besides playing the same stage over and over again while leveling up like 15 levels.

Yep, it's basically one long stage, that repeats itself after you beat the succubus, only now in hell mode so everything is harder. Occasionally you'll do well enough where you'll spawn a boss, where you and your friends basically kill it for tokens so you can summon more lousy 2 star elementals. Otherwise, there's not that much to the game at the moment. I like the song, but wish there was more than one track. Use the weekly elementals if you have nothing better, get 30 friends so you (and they) can gift each every day for easy friend points so you can summon more, and the gifts you get are often useful boosts.

My fire element of choice has been Ruin, but I haven't used many of the others that often because I picked up a 4* Ruin early on and now I'm just used to shooting a scythe boomerang for big damage. The good light elements that I like are Lucy and Voltage, because Lucy's laser shoots through everything so you can ignore shields, and Voltage also just manages to hit everything. Haven't really decided on a water element yet, nothing too impressive from any of the ones I've tried.

Since I doubt I'll be able to farm up another 50 stones before the frieza machine goes away I used all my leftovers and still no SSR. Hopefully form 4 gets a revival at some point then so I can get my frieza team.

EDIT: since apparently some people have actually played the JP version, are there other form 4 frieza cards?

Interesting but if Mecha Frieza is as hard to get as Tao and Jackie Chun have been, I'll never see him anyway.

Of course after all of my grousing about needing him, I get another Ginyu, the R INT one. He doesn't even have a passive ability. :mediocre:

The R STR one has a really nice one, so I guess it'll be a matter of what types are useful. I have a lot of redundant Ginyu Force dudes now, leading to pretty solid options for teambuilding if I level the others. Shame none of them have good generic leader abilities, but that's what Frieza's for.

Ginyu - R STR, R INT
Recoome SR PHY, R STR
Jeice R STR, R TEQ
Guldo R INT, R PHY
Burter SR AGI, had an R AGI that sucked.

I'm pretty close to getting that SR PHY Recoome (Never-Ending Assault) up to Xyber Huge/SSR*, so that'll be cool. Most of those Rs are SR* already.

I've had pretty good luck with the events so far, only Vegeta took more than than a handful of runs to drop for me and I have a better team now. I haven't been grinding for multiple copies, though.

On a more general note: What links are people finding useful? Obviously I think Ginyu Force is good and obviously Saiyan Warrior Race is great, but I'm wondering if anyone's been impressed with others. Brutal Beatdown is good and pretty common, as is Tough as Nails.

Added both of you, my code's 1487212337 if you want some random SR leader depending on what I'm doing. My A-Team lead is Emperor of Inequity Frieza for a sweet +15% Atk boost for everyone.

Also, aww fuckin' yeah. SSR* Recoome. Next on the SSR* block is that dumb fucker Burter, when I can scrounge up another 250k Zenni. Maybe he won't suck as hard at SSR*?

Is a SR Determined Defender Goku + SR Furious Impact Gohan a good enough starting roll? I've been rerolling to try and get something good on the second roll and this is the first SR I've managed to get.

On one hand a SSR isn't really needed, but on the other hand rerolling is really easy, if a bit mind-numbing (be sure to have something else to do while doing it)

How long are transfer codes active? I still have a spare SSR Trunks account and a spare SSR Goku, but I haven't played them in a while. They're 2-3 (crappy) rolls into the game already, but hey - SSR is SSR and if somebody here wants one of those just say something.

An SSR isn't needed, but I don't know if there are other form 4 frieza cards and I'm dedicated to an all frieza team. I have no clue how long the codes are active though, I'm still trying to grind up the 50 stones for the first roll. Takes a while.

Anyway, mecha freezer is pretty tough. Even with a type advantage he's hitting my team for over 3k each turn. Having a team of really good PHYS types is pretty much mandatory I think.

EDIT: while I'm bitching, I really wish there was something in the game to stop it from generating huge fields of damage spaces while at the same time only giving you one or two movement pieces. The game deciding you have no chance to win is never fun.

I've just now realized those little can items are health restores. So I've been chugging my stock of like 70+ green and blue cans to beat hard robo freezer when he decides to spam his super. Still no drop but I can do it now. Turns out this R Android 16 I had, hits like a drat truck. I thought it'd be useless but I've had him do more damage than some of the other similarly levelled units' supers.

Unfortunately for me, Int is the one color I don't have a "team" against. I have the Physical SR Raditz and Gohan that I can field, but I've been really unlucky with Phys and Int characters. Mountains of reds and blues. I'm beasting him on Hard no problem, but Z-Hard is going to be a struggle.

I'd probably hold on to a lot of those items if you haven't already farmed Dragon Stones on missions. Those will be a god-send on the later missions (like that loving Ginyu Force mission).

I did the Ginyu one with a Senzu. Take one and a Dende and it's probably fine.

Got Mecha Frieza on my 4th attempt. It's not too bad as long as you have a team with some z awakened folks due to the damage reduction. He still does like 3k to resistant characters, so it's really a damage race.

Already did Frieza 8 times on Hard without any luck. It looks like I'm going to have to grind this one out the hard way like I did with Jackie Chun (and the way I never got Cyborg Tao).

He gets a 2000 attack buff after taking damage, and his base stats are way higher than my other PHYS R's. He's dope.

I have a real bad PHY deficit too. I started with an SR Exploding Rage Gohan (Kid) and didn't realize that he is the worst SR I have ever seen. I have R characters tougher than him. My only other PHY is an R Krillin that I awakened to SR. He is about 150% more powerful in every stat compared to Gohan. I think the only good thing about that Gohan is the higher than average defense stat + All in the Family (+2000 DEF).
